You have contents in the default property of a container but also defined in the custom component. Remove the contents of the component instance and if need be move it into the component mxml file.

XML:
  1. <!-- Incorrect - notice the rectangle inside the component instance -->

  3.     <s:Rect width="100%" height="100%">
  4.         <s:fill>
